Add employees

Now that you have your company settings in order, it's time to add & and invite your team to start using Timeero.

You can add users one at a time, import them with a CSV, or in some cases, pull them in from your payroll software integration.

Once you are logged into the Web Portal, please follow the steps below to add users one at a time. 

1. Click on Users - you will see this tab on the left-hand side of your screen.
2. Next, choose Add User on the right-hand side of your screen and fill in the required fields:

First Name

Last Name

Email Address - The email entered will be the username (for this user) and is required to log into the web and mobile app.  This email address cannot be used for more than one person.  If the user does not have an email address, use a fake one.

Password - The password entered will be the password (for this user) required to log into the web and mobile app.  The password is case-sensitive, and employees can change it at any time.

User Role - Timeero offers 3 roles:  Admin, Manager, and Employee.

• Admins have full privileges in Timeero and can access all information for all users, company settings, account & billing details and is the only role with access to adding & deactivating users.
• Managers can only see timesheets, reports, and schedules of the users within their Group.  If you have managers, please create a Group and add a manager and the employees they supervise to the same group.
• Employees can only access their own timesheets & schedules.
  
  

Other Fields:

• Phone Number - If you would like to send the user an invitation to use Timeero via SMS (a great option if a user has no email), this becomes a Required Field.  Please be sure to enable the Invite via SMS feature by clicking on the box beside it.  SMS only works in the US and Canada.
• Track User's Location - When turned on, this will require your user to verify his/her location when clocking in/out. Their location will be captured every 150 feet.
• Track Mileage - When turned on, the user's mileage will be tracked. For this feature to work, you must turn on Track User's Location. 
• Hourly Rate - The Hourly or Daily rate is used to calculate how much money is owed to a user for time worked. Set it to 0 if it's a salaried user or if the rate is unknown. When the Daily rate is set, the dollar amount entered is how much money is owed to a user each day, no matter how many hours the user has worked.
• Groups - A group can be a department (sales, marketing, warehouse) or a way to organize your account (hourly workers vs salary workers).  With groups, you can create shifts for a group of users, run reports for a group, and assign jobs to specific teams. Learn more about groups here: Groups.  If you have managers, you will want to create groups.

• MILEAGE COST - PER MILE (overrides company mileage rate) - Fill in this field if the user gets reimbursed a different amount than all other users for mileage.  When you enter a mileage reimbursement rate in company settings, all users get reimbursed that amount UNLESS there is a rate entered in this field.

Once you are finished entering the information, click Add User at the bottom of the page.

🎉 Success!  An invite has been sent to the user 🎉
